Starter dashboards for Jira Software
There are five starter dashboards for Jira Software:
Jira Software - Issues Overview
This dashboard shows overall project progress along with a project date of completion based on how many unresolved issues you have and progress made in the last year.
You can filter the entire dashboard by Jira project, issue priority, and issue type.
This dashboard contains the following charts:
Project progress
The number of issues by issue status
Predicted completion date
Estimates the completion date of the project based on the number of issues resolved in the last year and the current number of unresolved issues
Unresolved issues by priority
The number of unresolved issues grouped by priority
Unresolved issues by priority and age
The number of unresolved issues grouped by priority and the age bucket of open issues
For example, “51-100” refers to issues that have been open for 51 to 100 days.
Issue details
Shows the following details for each issue that matches the filter criteria:
Issue key
Project
Issue type
Priority
Status
Created date
Updated date
Due date
You can filter this list by project, priority, and issue type.
Jira Software - Organization Overview
This dashboard provides many of the same agile metrics from the “Jira Software - Project Overview” dashboard, but it allows you to compare these metrics across other Jira projects in your instance. Additionally, the “Quick overview” section at the top provides organization-level metrics that can be beneficial for organization admins that are looking to find out more about their Jira instance.
This dashboard contains the following charts:
Sites
The number of sites that have data available in the Atlassian Data Lake connection
This chart is not connected to any variable controls on the dashboard.
Projects
The number of projects that have data available in the Atlassian Data Lake connection
This chart is not connected to any variable controls on the dashboard.
Team members who completed work
The number of team members (users) who have completed work within the selected date interval
You can filter this chart by the “Calendar” control labeled “Current date interval” and by project.
Team members with work in progress
The number of team members (users) who have issues in progress within the selected date interval
You can filter this chart by the “Calendar” control labeled “Current date interval” and by project.
Allocation per project
Compares how work was distributed across the selected projects in the selected date interval
You can filter this chart by the “Calendar” control labeled “Current date interval”, project, and project type.
Net flow of work per project
Measures the team’s focus on committed issues
Committed issues are issues that transitioned to an “In progress” status category.
For each project, this chart calculates the net flow of work, which is the difference between the committed issues completed and the new issues committed during the selected date interval.
You can filter this chart by the “Calendar” control labeled “Current date interval”, project, and project type.
Throughput per project
Measures the team’s performance by calculating the number of issues completed each week for each project
You can filter this chart by the “Calendar” control labeled “Current date interval”, project, and project type.
Responsiveness per project
Measures the amount of time it takes to complete any given issue
You can filter this chart by the “Calendar” control labeled “Current date interval”, project, and project type.
Defect ratio per project
For each project, the defect ratio is the percentage of defects completed out of the total number of issues completed in the selected date interval. For this chart, a defect is an issue with a "Bug" issue type.
You can use this to measure the quality improvement of a project over time.
You can filter this chart by the “Calendar” control labeled “Current date interval”, project, project type, and issue type.
Jira Software - Overview
This dashboard gives an overview of your entire Jira instance. You can filter the entire dashboard by Jira project name or project type.
This dashboard contains the following charts:
Issues created
The number of issues created in the selected date interval compared to the comparative date interval
You can filter this chart by the “Calendar” controls labeled “Current date interval” and “Comparative date interval”, project, and project type.
Issues resolved
The number of issues resolved in the selected date interval compared to the comparative date interval
You can filter this chart by the “Calendar” controls labeled “Current date interval” and “Comparative date interval”, project, and project type.
Issues unresolved
The number of unresolved issues created in the selected date interval compared to the comparative date interval
You can filter this chart by the “Calendar” controls labeled “Current date interval” and “Comparative date interval”, project, and project type.
Issues created vs issues resolved
The number of issues created and resolved by day
Total issues created and resolved are running totals.
You can filter this chart by the “Calendar” control labeled “Current date interval”, project, and project type.
Time to resolution
The average number of days it takes for issues to be resolved, by resolution date
You can filter this chart by the “Calendar” control labeled “Current date interval”, project, and project type.
Top 5 open issues by status
The top five issue status with the greatest number of open issues
This is a current view and is not connected to any “Calendar” controls on the dashboard.
You can filter this chart by the “Calendar” control labeled “Current date interval”, project, and project type.
Top 5 open issues by assignee
The user IDs of the top five assignees with the greatest number of open issues
This is a current view and is not connected to any “Calendar” controls on the dashboard.
You can filter this chart by the “Calendar” control labeled “Current date interval”, project, and project type.
Top 5 issues by project

Assignee
Labels
You can filter this chart by the “Calendar” control labeled “Current date interval”, project, project type, status, assignee account ID, and labels.
Jira Software - Project Overview
This dashboard provides agile metrics that provide insight into productivity through the different stages of a software development lifecycle.
You can filter the entire dashboard by the “Calendar” control labeled “Current date interval”, project name, and project type.
This dashboard contains the following charts:
Net flow of work
Measures the team’s focus on already committed issues
Committed issues are issues that transitioned to an “In progress” status category. An issue is completed when its final transition is to a “Done” status category.
This chart calculates net flow of work for each week in the selected date interval. Net flow of work is the difference between the committed issues completed and the new issues committed during the same week.
Defect ratio
The defect ratio is the percentage of defects completed out of the total number of issues completed in the selected date interval for each project. A defect is an issue with a “Bug” issue type.
You can use this to measure the quality improvement of a project over time.
In addition to the other variable controls on this dashboard, you can also filter this chart by issue type.
Throughput
Measures the team’s performance by calculating the number of issues completed each week for each project
Responsiveness
Measures the amount of time it takes to complete any given issue
For each project, this chart calculates the average cycle time of the issues completed during that week. Cycle time is the total time in days that it took for an issue to get started then completed. More specifically, it’s the time elapsed from when the issue first transitioned to an “In progress” status category to when it last transitioned to a “Done” status category.
Jira Software - Simple Project Overview
This dashboard aims to provide further insight into productivity by focusing primarily on open versus closed issues rather than overall team productivity. This dashboard can be filtered by Jira project name and assignee, and it allows you to see insights such as the average age of issues and the risk that these issues are at.
